Quake II RTX is a cutting-edge, ray-traced reimagining of id software’s old school classic, by NVIDIA’s Lightspeed Studios. Global lighting effects, including realistic reflections, refraction, shadows, ambient occlusion and global illumination are a result of the path-traced simulation of light.

It was a cool demo. I bought Quake II and loaded the files into this game and played the whole game in this engine.
Это классика, это знать надо!
Works well with AMD cards

Insanely impressive technology put to use to make a game look worse than the 1997 original.
Лучше поиграть в обновленную обычную версию, там сохранен оригинальный мрачный визуал, есть русский, музыка на уровнях играет, и не надо ебаться с настройками. Это технодемка, выпущенная в 2019 для продвижения технологий нвидии, в неё не предполагалось играть, только подрачить на лучики 10 минут и выключить. Тут нет dlss вообще, только fsr 1.0, поэтому rtx 5090 на макс настройках в 4к выдает 60 фпс с просадками и статтерами, поэтому ощущаются они как 20 и играется как кисель. Причем упор идет именно в rt ядра, поэтому в диспетчере видюха нагружена на 50%, что меня по началу смутило. Да, можно поиграться с рендером и тогда получить 120, но это не избавит от статтеров и других проблем, а картинка станет распадаться на пиксели. Самый мем, что ОРУЖИЕ СТРЕЛЯЕТ НЕ ПО ПРИЦЕЛУ! Я сначала долго не мог понять, почему я попасть ни в кого не могу, пока не подошел к стене и не увидел след от выстрела, он был справа снизу от прицела. После этого я нажал alt f4. В обновленной версии с этим все ок. Потом я узнал, что так было и в оригинале и как по мне это лютый кринж и еще один повод играть в обновленную версию.
Protip: For best performance and graphics you have to switch to the superior "opengl" renderer. No idea why the devs haven't set that as the default option! [spoiler]/s[/spoiler] Otherwise, yea.. it's Quake 2 i guess.. with overhyped RTX. Included is the demo pak, with the option to import the full game if you have it. Just play the real / normal Quake 2..
its free and its pretty neat. i see no issues with this upgrade and the fact that it didnt replace the original is amazing cos now i can play both. ♥♥♥♥ you todd howard you megamind lookin aah nerd emoji
Cool way to revisit this great, classic FPS, but I wouldn't recommend it for a first time playthrough, since much of its art style and art direction are changed with the RTX technology. Its great to experiment and get in touch with RTX.
As a fan of classic shooters, this was one of the reasons why I chose to get an RTX card. Very cool touch to an already fun game, my only criticism is that it messes with the art style sometimes. (I modded the original railgun back in).
ok, but quake2 remaster is superior. atleast it's free to play through it.
